Let him who would move the world, first move himself

That's a quote by Socrates. Here are some more:

"Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself." -- Rumi
"Be the change you wish to see in the world." -- Gandhi

In my life I've known more than my share of very intelligent, but pathetically delusional people (myself included). For the sake of my mental health I don't follow the news anymore so I can't post about it on my blog. I know enough to say, "Everything you hear from media pushes the agenda of those who pay them," and "If someone is catching flak, they're over the target."

Sorry if I don't post about current events anymore, but ... I just don't know what's going on out there, so I'm shifting my focus on what I can know and change.
